This document discusses the progress and policy drivers of clean energy investment and identifies challenges and solutions for power systems with high renewable energy penetration. Renewable energy costs have fallen dramatically in recent years while global investment has reached record highs, driven by renewable portfolio standards and mandates in California, Europe, China and other jurisdictions. Concerns about the variability of wind and solar power are addressed by solutions such as energy storage, demand response and gas backup generation. The document argues for "investment-grade policy" characterized by performance incentives, long time horizons, siting and contract certainty to reduce costs and scale up deployment of clean energy.
